    示範例句 · Example

    Researchers at the university are studying how young children learn new languages.

    逐字大學裡的研究員正在研究小孩如何學習新的語言。

    researcher 就是「research(研究)」加上「-er(做這件事的人)」,所以字面上就是「做研究的人」。它本身不說明研究什麼領域,所以常常前面會加一個字來說明,例如 medical researcher(醫學研究員)、a university researcher(大學研究員)。可以想成:researcher 是花很多時間仔細找答案、做實驗、蒐集資料的人,不只是「知道很多」的人。
